It was almost noon, but the sky was gloomy and like evening. As Gray ran to a mountain trail lined with cliffs on both sides, the rain that had been brewing for a long time finally began to fall. Gray glanced up at the increasingly dense rain curtain, and he didn't mean to find a place to shelter from the rain at all, because with the body of the awakened, it was really nothing to brave the rain, he just wanted to get to the place quickly and quickly and then go back.

Gray, who was thinking like this, suddenly slowed down his pace, only to notice a man-high boulder standing in the middle of the road ahead. Falling rocks? Gray observed the stone, which felt a little abrupt, but when it got closer, he stopped suddenly, and stared at what was carved into the stone in a daze.

'This is ......' Gray shuddered as he stared at the symbols carved into the stone, which he knew very well were the sword marks of the great swords that had died in his hands.

"Click! The unique sound of footsteps coming from behind the ...... made Gray suddenly wake up and hurriedly turn around to take precautions.

"It's you?!" After seeing the face of the warrior in front of him, Gray couldn't help but lose his voice.

"It's us." Lucira stood still, her rain-soaked eyelashes raised, revealing her sword-like silver eyes. The demonic aura that was just completely imperceptible to Gray's perception suddenly seemed to have countless torches suddenly appeared in the dark night! Looking around, the cliffs on both sides were full of ghostly figures.

'Hit the mark!' It's a trap! Gray Zhang released the demonic spirit, he couldn't care about anything, and summoned all the "corpse concubines" except for the "hole cards" in one breath, and watched the countless soldiers jump down from the height at that time to surround him, and his mind suddenly seemed to explode like something, "How many people?" How do they do it? Not perceptible at all? Secret medicine? Still is...... Why did you suddenly gather such forces against me?! Did I do it wrong last time? After letting them know my ability, it aroused their murderous intent......

'It's useless to think about it now!!' Gray, who was so nervous that he couldn't breathe, tried to calm his breathing, and some incoherently hissed at the soldiers who surrounded him, "Wait! Wait, wait, wait!! Don't mess around! Don't mess around! It's a trap! You have been deceived! We were all deceived! If we kill each other, we'll just make them ......"

"This operation. It has nothing to do with the organization. Lucila shook her head slightly, pulling out the big sword behind her back with one hand, "We all stand here with our own will. ”

"Your own will?! No kidding, you can't be this—" Gray met Lucilla's eyes, and the answer seemed to be self-evident. His mind seemed to be unable to handle the current news, but was messed up, and he shouted like crazy, "If you really did this, what kind of madness are you now!" What are you going to me for!? Go-"

"After I get rid of you, I will."

"What do you mean after you get rid of me!?" Are they crazy? Or are you crazy? Gray felt like he couldn't understand their thinking at all, "I'm not with them!" It's true! If you want, I can work with you! Help you guys go along—"

"Cooperation?" NO.5 Elizabeth seemed to have heard a cold joke, and asked with a smile, "I don't even know the relationship between the warrior and the awakened, when will it be good enough to entrust each other's backs?" ”

Gray glared at the warrior who liked to raise the bar, and then said to Luhira again, "Lucyla! I'm not hostile to you! Don't you know! If I had thought about it last time, you, and the NO.2 over there, would have died a long time ago! Speaking of this, Gray hated it, gritted his teeth and said, "Let you go!" I'll let you go! That's how you reciprocated me!? It's ingratitude......"

"'Kindness' is spoken to people." Elizabeth seems to be at odds with Gray

"I'm human!" Gray almost thumped his chest.

"You monster really dare to say it." Elizabeth tilted her head and looked up and down at the tentacles behind Gray, "Can snowdrops still grow in the dung pit?" Have you never eaten human offal? ”

"......," Gray was speechless for a moment, but immediately regrouped his rhetoric, "I eat all the bandits!" Those scum aren't human ...... at all."

"Hmph, then I'll ask you. No matter how many bandits there are in the world, there will be a limit in the end, and when all the bandits are eaten, what will you do? ”

"I ......" Gray didn't think about it so long-term, but now he could only bite the bullet, "When the day comes, I'll be patient......"

"Do you believe this?" Elizabeth stared at Gray with her dark silver eyes, "Let me tell you the answer." There will come a time when you will continue to eat people, and you will continue to make excuses to eat people who you think are 'not human'. ”

“……”

"If you really don't want to eat people, then you should not do it from the beginning, then there will be a final thing to quit." Elizabeth seemed to see through him, "While eating people, you make excuses that you are not eating people, and in the end you still regard yourself as an existence above human beings." ”

Seeing Gray's complicated expression, Canaan interrupted: "Don't talk nonsense, just because you have so many blood debts on your hands, don't expect us to let you go." ”

"Don't deceive too much! If they come to kill me, will I just die obediently? Hearing such unreasonable remarks, Gray became furious again, "They forced me, I have no choice!" ”

Canaan reacted more excitedly than him, and pointed at the "corpse queens" in front of Gray with the big sword in his hand, "Is it 'no choice' to turn them into this!" ”

"I... I was just... I just don't want them to die meaninglessly! ”

"Pointless? Hey. Penelope casually spit out the chewing cigarette in his mouth, his eyes full of murderous intent, "Dying as a human is the last meaning of our warriors." And you have to deprive yourself of this! ”

"You...... You guys! Gray was so angry that he couldn't even speak, and moved his gaze to Lucila, who hadn't spoken for a long time, and asked with a rough temperament, "Speaking of which, you just want to kill me, right?!" ”

"By all signs, we have seen through your nature and what you will do in the near future." Lucila pulled out the pendant on her chest, which symbolized 'Rapoll', and held it tightly with one hand, as if to make a final judgment: "Humans are not your captive animals, nor are they your pets to please you!" Today - you must die. ”

"Good! You brought it on yourself! Gray was confused thinking about how to fight, and at the same time made a final shock, "Want my life?" It's not that easy! I'm going to take at least half of them too! Saying such cruel words, I wanted them to weigh the benefits and disadvantages at the end, but seeing that they were all unmoved and determined, an indescribable sense of grievance, he almost wanted to vomit blood, so he had to say to himself, "You will regret it, Made, I really don't know who to cheapen ......to fight this inexplicable stupid battle."

"No, it won't." Lucilla's eyes had turned golden, "Because you're nothing to us right now." The beautiful face also became distorted and ugly, and the left arm that was not holding the sword instantly turned into a sharp spear, and stabbed at Gray who was hiding behind the "corpse queen".

"W-" The barrel of the gun sank deep into the ground that had become soft from the rain. The "corpses" in front of Gray automatically dispersed, and he himself retreated to dodge. For the next battle, he now has a vague strategy in his heart, although he says that he wants to break the net, but he will not fight with them, and he has to try to break through......

Then the best thing to do is to ...... Gray gulped his breath, ready to release an octopus-like "inkjet", the purpose was to create a large "battlefield black fog" and then break through the chaos, but when the gas was finished and ready to be sprayed, he suddenly choked on the "ink" and coughed violently, and the "ink" that was only used for one spray was swallowed by him.

Without waiting to think about why he was so oolong, the tip of Lucilla's gun had already swept from the bottom up, and Gray had to continue to dodge in a hurry, but his mind was dazed for a while, and for no reason, he suddenly remembered that he had watched a movie clip called "Childhood Shadow" when he was a child, and all the details in it were meticulous......

The throat suddenly stagnated, Gray realized that his throat had been sharply pierced, but it was still timely, Gray grabbed the body of the gun with both hands, so that it could not move forward any further, the two tentacles behind him, one left and one right, mercilessly attacked Lucyra, but strange things appeared again, the two tentacles did not touch the enemy themselves but collided together, and then twisted together like two entangled snakes, and the result was that Lucyla was cut into several pieces with a sword. At the same time, the spear-like object in his hand, which was still hard as iron, instantly softened and refined, and slipped out of his palm like a loach.

'Not true! It felt very wrong from just now! Gray subconsciously shook his head, trying to refresh himself, but he couldn't concentrate, and for a while his ears seemed to be playing some "brainwashing divine comedy" on a loop, and then he remembered those bizarre dreams he had a long time ago......

……

Not all fighters were involved in this battle, and on the top of the peak, which was separated from the battlefield by several mountains, the two fighters ranked No.9 and No.10 stood side by side, their golden vertical pupils staring directly in the direction of the battlefield, and the blood vessels in the corners of their eyes and foreheads squirming like bugs under them.

At this time, Leto took the time to glance at Grensi beside him, and was a little surprised: it was the first time he cooperated with NO.10, but he was not the slightest awkward, and whenever he disturbed the demonic aura of the Awakened, Grensi would follow closely behind, like gears meshing to keep up with a wave of sensory disturbance.

“NO… No, Sister Leto, please concentrate. After completing a wave of "psychic attacks", Gross opened her mouth to remind Leto.

"I don't need you to remind me." Leto replied angrily, and began the next round of "demonic harmony", and remembered the conversation with Lucila that night, she said: The organization is not so simple, and it will definitely make ghosts when the war is at its most intense. But Lucilla's answer was: it was to elicit the organization's 'killer feature' and disrupt their deployment in one fell swoop...... The warm-up battle with the Awoken will not have any highs/climaxes, and will only end in a short time without losing a single soldier on our side.
